I have an electrical problem with my MF30. All of a sudden neither my Ampmeter nor the Fuel Gauge are working. The alternator seems to be putting out voltage. Any ideas? Nick Marks, Dublin, Ca

The power steering on my MF30 seems to work fine when cold but once the tractor warms up the PS seems to go away. The manual says use fluid meeting spec MF M-1129A. I found out that WalMart evidently changed their fluid and the WalMart fluid I added no longer meets M1129A (it does meet M1141...

Does anyone have an old Lilliston 7-six brush hog mower they are parting out? I need one or all three spindle assemblies, or at least the spindle and arm assembly (the shaft). These are fairly simple to remove if you know the trick (A machinist friend showed me). Any help will be much appreciated/

I had an alternator burn up on my MF30 with the AD4-203 Perkins diesel motor. Two of the wires going to the alternator (12v and ground were bolted to the alternator but the other two wires were spade-lugged to two prongs on top of the alternator. Anyone know where these two wires go on the...

Does anyone know how the Tach circuit on a JD750 works? What causes it to indicate engine speed? I have both the parts and service manuals and can't seem to find a Tach Sending Unit.

I have a general tractor question. I have a JD750 and the front axle uses 90 weight gear oil. How is the rear axle lubricated? Is it part of the hydraulic/transmission oil system?

I have an MF30 tractor/MF34 loader. The arms on the loader have a lot of play in them. I am planning to replace all of the bushings. Has anyone rebuilt a loader and what do I need to watch for? Also if you rebuilt the loader, what condition were the pins that the bushings ride on like? Should I...

I am trying to locate four bushings for the lift arm bushings on an MF 34 loader. The dealer says they are no longer available from the manufacturer. MF p/n 708 085 M1. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks Nick Marks

I have a problem with my MF30. With just the MF34 loader and no weight in the back, the Power Steering works fairly well when the tractor is cold but gets worse as the tractor gets hotter. The PS pump has been rebuilt by a dealer. Any ideas?

I forgot that I have another MF30 question. Has anyone changed or cleaned the internal hydraulic filter? The factory manual says to remove the PTO control panel and reach in to remove the safety wire and then remove the filter. Is this something a novice like me can do? I'm a truck driver and a...

I have another question about my MF30 tractor. I have the MF30 with an MF34 loader. The curl droops under load. I have had the cylinders rebuilt with no change so it's probably in the control valve. I know the valve is no longer available from the dealer. Anyone have any ideas? Are there any...

Hi all. My name is Nick. I have an MF30 Industrial tractor with the MF54 loader and the removable MF backhoe. I am also a former contact of Big Dean Austin. As others, I sure miss him. Several years ago he was on a trip to Bakersfield, Ca and I tried to get him to come up to see me and my...
